About Rosemary

Rosemary Holderman is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who brings four decades of experience to therapy. She works with adults and adolescents on stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, parenting challenges, grief, trauma, and aging and geriatric issues. Her style is straightforward and person-focused. She listens and helps people set realistic goals they can act on.

She has worked in many settings, including juvenile corrections, group homes, public mental health, in-home family counseling, and with state child welfare services. That range gives her familiarity with crisis situations, family dynamics, and transitions. Her background includes individual and group work, and support for people affected by domestic violence and victims of violence.

In sessions she emphasizes an honest, respectful relationship. The client sets the pace and direction while she guides conversations with empathy. She uses techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy to address symptoms and help people develop coping skills.

Rosemary aims to help people identify practical steps toward their goals. She talks through concerns, helps build routines, and practices skills that reduce stress and improve communication. Her work often focuses on parenting, family patterns, caregiver stress, and navigating life changes.

She maintains practice in Florida as an LCSW. Sessions are conducted in English. People considering therapy can expect clear, steady support aimed at real-world progress.

How therapy approaches shape remote sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that align with their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying thought patterns and changing behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. It is practical and skills oriented. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, non-directive relationship where the person leads the work and the therapist offers empathy and support.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Rosemary will work collaboratively to decide what methods fit a person’s needs and preferences. Together they will set goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps most.

Session formats are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes continuing care through life transitions more practical for caregivers and people juggling work and family. Licensed professionals can tailor session pacing and homework to match daily routines and goals.
